hereby irrevocably gives mandate to the Company to represent the Customer / Policy holder to the insurer;

undertakes to disclose all material facts within their knowledge and give a fair presentation of the risk.

Duty of Disclosure:

You must be aware of the "duty of disclosure" in relation to any insurance and the severe consequences of non-disclosure. Disclosing all material facts at the time of taking out any insurance is of utmost importance and in your own interest.

The duty of disclosure is a duty to pass on to the Underwriter(s) all "Material" information, relating to the risk under consideration.

"Material" in this context refers to all information, which a prudent Underwriter (not necessarily the Underwriter in question) would wish to take account of, when considering whether or not to accept the risk and, if so, upon what terms and at what price. Material information does not necessarily have to actually increase the risk.

The duty of disclosure continues up until the insurance has been concluded and "resurrects/revives" in the event of any amendment to the risk during the policy period or extension/renewal. It may also be that the terms of the policy include specific on-going disclosure conditions or warranties, which effectively extend the duty of disclosure post inception of the policy.

In completing a proposal or claim form or any other material document relating to insurance or policy and in providing information to or for Underwriters, the accuracy and completeness of all answers, statements and/or information is the policyholder’s own responsibility and it is of paramount importance that all relevant information is provided and that it is true, correct and accurate and there is no material concealment of the information.

In the event that there is a breach of the duty of disclosure, the Underwriter has the right to avoid the insurance from its commencement or this may have an adverse impact at the time of claim settlement.

Under such circumstances, the Underwriter(s) /Insurer(s) would be entitled to seek recovery of any claims already paid by them under the insurance. Further, we as insurance broker, the Insurer shall not be liable legally or otherwise, in the event of an improper disclosure or for concealment of any material information.

The duty of disclosure and the consequences of its breach may vary from the contract being void from inception to being voidable at the discretion of the Insurer, as per applicable laws.

Should you require any clarification on the duty of disclosure, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us.
